Helps vs. one rad and that Eisbaer's own little res, also a LOT easier to fill with that Phobya res.

I made a minor differences to the loop.

My last Mini ITX motherboard, i still keep my z97 and the 4790k because it support M.2 nand even i know is a little bottleneck my GPU compared to a 8700k... But i will see what comes the whole system update plus DDR4 is the next upgrade for sure.

I made a mistake my CPU temp raised when ive mounted the radiator like in the last pics.

Now i put it on the front and temps get a serious drop. Normalized.

Also added a 90mm Noctua fan in front of the VRM, because they get very hot if not cooled properly.

All you lads and lasses with your tidy and clean builds, i´m impressed. This is how it looks like when you stuff a Thermaltake Core X9 with 2 custom loops, 3x 420 rads and a ton of fans (20+):







It´s not pretty nor is it clean, but that´s not what I build it for :p
It is however leakproof, runs 24/7 fine and stays a bit closer to ambient temp then the standard AIO.





Building it was a pain. In multiple ways. Got the parts one by one, decided I don´t need a plan and just go with the flow. Bit by bit and stretched over 3 months, hunting for lowest prices or open box returns. Routing all the wires for the fans and temp sensors... For me it was worth the effort, I love it. It works, it performs and I have in depth temp readouts for every crucial spot.
If anyone asks why it looks like that, I´ll just say I went "Borg-themed".

Edit: The front is of course closed now:


The chaos is neatly contained inside.

Hi, it's already filled and running up with distilled water. Thanks

Testing these external sensors pluggable to motherboard. Seem to work, too bad that I have just two of those, there's three connectors in RVE.

Moved the ITX rig, it's too hot to run Skyrim:SE reliably without freezing, because nVidia won't do anything about it. Other games run fine.

I'm starting to hate that Phanteks LED strip, because nothing seems to be able to diffuse the light, I can still see the individual points of light source. I cut up an aluminium profile, sharpied it and stuck some magnetic tape on it. It's better than nothing, but I'm not happy how that looks, especially in photos.

The rig used to be housed here. Then the heatwaves started.

I know, but I just can't do the peel. It's a guilty pleasure. :D

Usually my friend would see this and go "why you didn't do this? or that?" there's nobody telling what's good or bad. So I just leave it as it is, since I barely get much feedback nowadays.

We used to get into fiery conversations what's the better product and what-not, but now since he upgraded his computer and it does everything it needs to. He's just given up on keeping on top of the new and exciting.

Oh, I'm rambling again, aren't I?
